Multiple Text Style Transfer by using Word-level Conditional Generative Adversarial Network with Two-Phase Training (D19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Generative adversarial network (GAN) is a popular model for text style transfer . but, training GAN often suffers from mode collapse problem, which causes that the transferred text is little related to the original text. |
| Approach: | They propose a non-parallel text style transfer model with a word-level conditional architecture and a two-phase training procedure to maintain style-unrelated words while changing others. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms state-of-the-art models on three real-world datasets in transfer accuracy and fluency. |
